In the previous article we’ve talked about the benefits of gaming guilds. Now, let’s get down and dirty and walk through how to actually build your own gaming guild. If it sounds like a big and challenging quest, guess what: IT IS a big and challenging quest. But since when has big and challenging scare off gamers?

Step One: Vision

Have a vision. It starts with a dream, folks. How do you imagine your gaming guild to look like? What types of games will it focus on? What kind of people do you hope will join your guild? What will be the uniting philosophy/belief between the people? Work through these things in your head (tip: writing it out helps) and once you’re sure of what you want your guild to look like, then you can proceed.

Gaming in the 21st century revolves around the key factor of community, usually online on platforms like Discord. When we’re talking about GameFi and blockchain games, the success of a certain game highly depends on the communities buying into the world of the game.

Benefits of a Gaming Guild

A gaming guild provides communal connection, a place to ask questions and familiarize oneself with new features or products. For blockchain games, the guild also provides a bridge to help the player take the first steps into the blockchain. From the smallest things like opening a crypto wallet, how to make sure the account is secure, and how to get more information about new games and how to earn from those games.

When someone says they want to be in showbiz, people usually think oh, so you want to be a famous actor/actress? While that could be the case, there are also many other career opportunities like directing, producing, set design, scriptwriting, etc.

But there are also so many other career opportunities in the eSports industry aside from being a professional gamer. Let’s take a look at some of those job possibilities.
